Thankfully I have been very busy with life; Preschool graduation, brand building with our family business, family visiting, digging in the garden, building a new preschool playground, swimming, work travel, visiting with friends, going to the gym, evenings on the patio . . . Life IS GOOD! Even though I can’t run right now I have been filled with gratitude for all of the wonderful things that I am fortunate to have in my life.

I am thankful for this time to slow down. Life post Boston Marathon has me forever changed. I want to try to put any negatives behind me. I don’t want to dwell on what could go wrong or worry if things are not perfect. Life can be fleeting. Take the time to slow down and take in the views of life around you.

I want to soak in the positive energy that is all around me. I want to share my dreams with others. I want to inspire. I want to feel inspired by others. I want to LIVE every day!

I will run again soon and I will be sure to slow down and enjoy the “treasures” in my life.

Wishing you a day filled with gratitude for all that is good in your life.
